Hi,

I'm a developper of an open source web analytics software (spongestats.org).

I have developped a new feature for version 3.1 to get the page title from the current page based on an API.
Actually, only Wordpress is integrated but I would like to integrate some other CMS/Blog platforms, so I would like to know if there is an API feature included in MODX that I can use to get the current page title.

For example, in Wordpress, I use the API feature wp_title('',false);

Do you know if something similar is available in the XOOPS API and if I can use it in an external marker ?

Regards,
Bastien.

I´m not shure I understand what you want.
Do you want to know what is the page title of the site from a module you are doing? From an external software? Can you give an better example on how you doing it with wordpress?

Yes, I would like to get the title of the current page from an external webapps developped in PHP.

The wordpress function wp_title() return the title of the current page and I would like to know if there is something similar in XOOPS.

Thanks.
Bastien.

I believe most developers use a class to get this information. XOOPS theme developers typically use a Smarty tag.

Since I don't know exactly what you're doing you might also consider using the document.title DOM property. Something like:
le="color: #000000"><?php <body> The title of the document is: <script type="text/javascript"> document.write(document.title) </script> </body>

As I say, it could not be done in JS because the stats marker is included in PHP and executer on server side.
